Linley Crochet Ear Warmer Ad-Free Premium PDF Printable

Get your copy of the premium ad-free PDF pattern. The Premium version includes photo stitch tutorial 2 sizes!

Lush And Cozy

The Linley Ear Warmer is wide, thick, and luscious! I’ve used the bulky oh-so-soft *Wonderfluff yarn form *Knit Picks which is sure to be the perfect cold weather accessory. A very special thank you to *WeCrochet for providing this amazing yarn for the design!

The pattern is worked back and forth in rows then seamed together with the added touch of the band giving it that super cute bow look.

The free version below is for an Adult Small/Medium. The Adult Medium/Large is included in the Premium PDF as well. However, it is quite easy to adjust for any size. The quick work up of the Linley Ear Warmer will make these a great addition to your Market stock or for quick gifts!

The Pattern

Adult Small/Medium

Ch 17

Row 1: Hdc in the second ch from the hook and each ch across, ch1, turn (16).

Remember to place stitches between the posts, not under the loops!

Row 2: Hdc between the posts of each st across, ch1, turn (16).

Row 3 – 45: Repeat row 2.

Row 46: Repeat row 2, do not tie off. Once row 46 is complete, bring the opposite side up and slst ends together to join. Weave in ends.

BAND

Ch 9

Row 1: Hdc in the second ch from the hook and each ch across, ch1, turn (8).

Remember to place stitches between the posts, not under the loops!

Row 2: Hdc between the posts of each st across, ch1, turn (8).

Row 3 – 11: Repeat row 2.

Row 12: Repeat row 2, tie of leaving long tail to sew around ear warmer.

Lay the band under the seam of the ear warmer and join ends together, gathering the ear warmer between. Whip stitch the ends closed, you can make a few stitches into the ear warmer as well to secure the band in place and weave in ends. Flip ear warmer so seam is on the inside.
